Abstract (en)
A printing method comprising the steps of:- forming an image by applying marking material (I) onto the surface of a substrate (14);- subjecting the image to a fixation treatment; and- applying a layer (V) of an ionically stabilized varnish on the surface of the image, wherein, when the image has been formed, a layer of liquid solvent (S) is formed on at least a part of the surface of the image, thereby causing ions to migrate from the marking material (I) into the solvent (S) and then to be absorbed into the substrate (14) together with a part of the solvent before the varnish s applied.
